Pre-Development Meeting

What is a Pre-Development Meeting?

Pre-Development Meetings are highly encouraged discussions between Staff and property owners, developers, engineers, surveyors, architects, and other interested parties. The purpose of a Pre-Development Meeting is to provide the necessary information regarding state laws, and city ordinances, ensuring that both the city, and applicant are able to communicate in the most effective manner.
